Our reasons are varied but after a twenty-five year stint at the heart of the online Swansea City community, the time is right for us to bow out.

Ayew alone would have been on £4m plus extras in the year these financials covered, so a total wage bill of £26m is feasible once you chuck in the other costs. How much of Hourihane's wages were we covering?

Championship wages for last FY.

Do these include any of Ayew’s?

Also, Winter and Davies assured us playing staff wages were bottom third champ, that’s obviously not true, it hasn’t been cut that significantly this season surely

The only quote from Winter I've seen on that was always a bit vague ("I would say our wage budget is probably in the range of bottom third in the Championship. Being honest, that's about where we are") so I never put much stock in it, but I don't think it's a million miles off if that was the aspiration/intention rather than the reality of existing spending this season. Without last season's January business we'd have been under that £24m mark, surely. Problem is bottom third is still not healthy.

No, he left us at the start of FY21/22.

Understood.

Tough old league to survive in, never mind compete.

Umm....isnt this the accounts for the year to mid 2022 - Ayew and Hourihane were the year before?
 
I'll ask the simpleton question.

If these are pre-tax figures.

What are the post tax figures?
